Pet Policy: Yes, the customary etiquette plus a caution to watch pets coming in contact with native wildlife. No tieouts! They are quite vigilant about pet/owner behavior and Florida recently opened more of its parks to pets--but reserve the right to clamp down without warning if owners do not mind the pet rules!
